The First PokeCommunity Communitylocke!

[DeusPro]

THIS IS A RUBY AND SAPPHIRE RUN ONLY

Hello! My name is Diego, and I am proud to present what should be the first PokeCommunity Communitylocke!

A Communitylocke is a competitive Nuzlocke which originated on the Nuzlocke Forum. There are several variations, but the most commonly seen contains points earned and lost with certain in game events. The player with the highest points wins! I will look into prizes and such for the winners. And now onto the rules!

Spoiler: RULES!

1. You may only catch the first Pokemon encountered in any given area.
--1a. Dupes clause is ON. If the first encounter's a duplicate of the evolutionary line of something you've already caught, you have the option to not count that Pokemon as your first encounter and retry.
--1b. For areas with multiple floors or similar, you are only allowed one catch for the whole area, NOT one catch per floor.
--1c. Shiny clause is on-- Any shiny Pokemon encountered may ignore the first-encounter rule.
--1d. Pokemon encountered before obtaining Poke Balls do not count as encounters.
--1e. Exception: You CANNOT catch any legendary Pokémon. If you encounter Groudon and Kyogre as your first encounter, skip them and catch whatever comes next.

2. If a Pokemon faints, it is dead and you must permanently box or release it.

3. Give everything a nickname! You may choose names such as your friends on the forums, funny meme names, or whatever you would like!

4. If you have caught a Pokemon with a trade evolution, it may be hacked in at Level 40.
--4a. For item-based trades, you may hack in the evolution whenever you find the item in question.
--4b. For cartridge players, regular trade evolutions may not be made until Level 40. Item-based trade evolutions are as normal.

5. Gift Pokemon are allowed, except if in a case that contradicts Rule 1.

6. Maybe the most important rule. The games played must be Ruby or Sapphire. Sorry, but no Emerald or hacks.

Next, we have the requirements to earn or lose points. There will also be specialized achievements that earn you more points. Just so you know, each person is responsible for tallying up their points at the end of each update. I will, however, be responsible for collecting and updating all of the points in this thread. Now, onto the points and achievements!

Spoiler: POINTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS!

Points

1. Catch a Pokémon: +1 (Note: Shiny Pokemon do not count for a point unless they are the first encounter.) The starter is NOT a catch and therefore does NOT award points.
2. Defeat a Gym Leader or Elite Four member: +1
3. Defeat Archie or Maxie for the final time: +2
4. Defeat Steven: +3
5. Lose a Pokemon: -1

Achievements

1. Party Depth: +2 for the first time you have six Pokemon in the party.
2. Master of the Land and Water: +2 at the end of the run if no Pokémon are ever lost to a Team Aqua/Magma member.
3. Trick-or-Treat: +1 for every REGIONAL Rare Candy found. Each one must be logged or screenshotted for proof.
4. Perfection: Every Gym, the final Evil Team Leader Battle, Elite Four or Champion battle completed without a death yields double points. This ONLY applies to the +1, +2 or +3 you would get with the victory alone. In case of other achievements (such as Evergreen) coming into play together with Festival of Life, the points yielded by said achievements are NOT doubled.

Now that that is over with, I should mention guides on how to post screenshot runs, logs, and written runs with a story element. A specific link for screenshot runs is here. This works well for more general Nuzlocke runs. The best and most applicable sections on there for here are Updating your run, Advertising your run, and Responding to comments. From my personal advice, creating a good name for your run is always fun and recognizable. I definitely reccomend it to all of you. :D

And finally, the entrants:

The beginning of 'Will I actually complete a Nuzlocke run this time?'​

Ayy, after being blackmailed recruited, I'm finally ready to post my first update. I've never done a screenshot run before, so this should be interesting to do. May Arceus give us all strength during this mukstorm.

Spoiler: Screenshots

Time to start this story off with an introduction! This is Zoska. The brave heroine of the story who wants to become the greatest trainer alive or die trying.

Seriously, though. What kind of parent just lets their kid ride in the back of a mover's truck with no safety. Surely there was a third seat up front?

Mother, I am fairly 100% certain that me riding in the back of this truck breaks all kinds of laws.

As opposed to you who will be sleeping in the kitchen for the rest of your life. There's a sandwich joke in there somewhere, but that's beneath me.

I will be taking this as I'll definitely be needing it at some point to prevent my pok?mon from 'dying' forever.

These are important enough to be added, right? Right.

Hey there, homie! That's right, we're gonna be rivals and battle and--

...understandable sir, have a great day.

Not ten minutes in this 'town' and I already need to go save someone. Getting Skyrim flashbacks all over again.

Gdi, Professor. It's just a poochyena. Man up.

Aight, to make this more interesting I'll be choosing my starter based on the last number of my trainer ID. 1-3 = Treecko, 4-6 = Torchic, 7-9 = Mudkip, and 0 being my choice. Looks like I'll be choosing Mudkip.

Yes pls.

Hahaa, wouldn't it have been hilarious if this pooch was shiny? The answer is no, it would not. After tackling it a few times, Mudkip wins and doesn't level up in the process.

For a man who's studied pok?mon at close proximity for most of his life, you'd assume he would be able to avoid that kinda thing, huh Professor?

YE BOIS LESSGO IT'S TIME TO GET THIS BALL ROLLIN'

Naming him after the Swampert I caught in a randomise run but never completed story of my life ayy. I do a lil bit of training to get him up to lv. 7 before finding that white-hair...white-hatted rival of mine.

Hey there, buddy. It's time to kick your butt and battle against that Treecko I wish I had.

Yeah, this battle is not interesting in the slightest. It's just Winston tackling his Treecko while his Treecko responds with pounding Winston round the face.

Obviously we win, though.

We head back, I stop off at the Pok?mon Centre, I receive the Pok?dex from Birch and some pok? balls off Brendan (wow only five stingy much), and this is where I pause my adventure. Right before I capture my second pok?mon. Or...maybe I won't? I got Winston from this route. I'll have to ask :thonk:

Update 1

Spoiler: Screenshots for the ones interested

Hahaha! I finally have a bike of my own! I never knew it was so easy to steal stuff!

woop woop GET OFF THE VEHICLE AND ON THE GROUND!
SINCE WHEN DO THEY SEND LEGENDARIES AFTER YOU!?

Silly intro aside... Here is my (hopefully first finished) nuzlocke of Pokemon Ruby!

Yes indeed Mr. Treename. It is I! The grrrreat Ethan! ..... whoever that might be.

So according to nuzlocke standard I am to comment on my position in this vehicle. As I am a born rebel I will not do this thing and move on.
Didn't you just comment on it?
SILENCE!

I'm just wondering how we even got to here.

Now that's something I like to hear. No more sleeping on the local park bench!

Excuse me sir but that tv is not plugged in ye... GYAO GYAO!
Ok ok whatever you want!
Ethan dear why don't you go meet the neighbours?
Ugh fine.

Good day! It is I! The grrrreat Ethan!
...
Yeah if I were you I wouldn't be impressed either to be honest.

Goodbye strange-lady-who-didn't-give-me-her-name!
I suppose I can check out the local wildlife. See if they got any Rattata in this region.

How much am I gonna get paid to save you though? Oh whatever I'll just use this pokeball.

Well it certainly isn't a Rattata. But I doubt it's any better.
Go uh.... whatever your name is!

Well that was an easy first battle. Although it smells like dead hyena in here.
So uh what's yer name little fellah?
:3
Oh you don't talk huh?

Yeah no problem. Now about that mo..

..ney Ah darnit you used your teleport powers. I should've known.
Might as well keep this little fellah.

Welcome to the non existent team Barney!
:D
Sigh...

Oh hello there. I would love to battle but could you give me your name first?
My name is May! Now stop asking questions and send your Pokemon out!

I hope you realise I will kick your ass.
Pffft. Just try!

Maybe listen next time.
T-that was unfair! I demand a rematch!
Yeah not gonna happen kid.

Well this is useless. Might as well throw it away.

This however...

You know my mind is telling me to question my ability to run without special shoes.... but my body screams RUNNING SHOES YES!

Will do mom. In my far travels I will always think of you as my role model and my guidance through this harsh land and I will alw... ah whatever let's go.

Please something good please something good please something go...

od... You know what I'm not suprised.
Arf!

According to this machine my Daisy is naughty. Well I hope I don't get bitten often.
ARF ARF!

Story or at least something like story:

- My ID ends with 6, so Torchic is my starter
- Saved Prof. Birch and nicknamed my Torchic May
- Travelled to Route 103 and beat May
- Finally got ability to catch Pokemon
- Route 101 encounter was Torchic, so Route 103 is next
- Route 103 -> Zigzagoon - caught, nicknamed Zigy +1
- Route 102 -> Wurmple - caught, nicknamed Aygo +1
- And Aygo evolved! Into Cascoon, so it will be Dustox line
- Met my Dad and did catching tutorial... when I already had two Pokemon
- Route 104 -> Wingull - caught, nicknamed Pepko +1
- Aygo evolved once again
- Petalburg Woods -> Shroomish - caught, nicknamed Punchy +1

- Trained on Route 116 for a while and May evolved
- Rocked Rusboro Gym with no deaths +2
- Beat Team Aqua Grunt again
- Zigy is poisoned! I have to go to the PokeCenter!
- That Devon guy stopped me from saving my Pokemon! He took me to Devon HQ instead! Now, who's the villain!
- I made it! But now I want to destroy Devon! Mr. President was so naive, that he gave me Letter for some stoned dude
- But I have my own goal! I'll take this letter to the Team Aqua, so they'll let me join them! I'll make Devon pay for almost killing my Zigy!

It's Goin' Down First Update
The Story so far

Spoiler:

Ouch....Ouch...Ouch... Why did my mum think it was a good idea to put her daughter in the back of a moving truck? Is that child abuse? Anyways I've finally arrived in Littleroot Town and sweet mum says I get my own room! I quickly checked the clock and when I headed downstairs mum was yelling about dad on TV. Following this I headed over to introduce myself to our neighbours, the Birches. I found their son who was my age and named Brendan in his room.
"I kinda thought you'd be a guy" he admits before rushing out of the room. I attempt to follow him but I am stopped by a kid hearing yelling. Instictively I run to the source and without thinking grab a ball tossing out the creature inside. The professor asks me back to his lab where he gives me the pokemon I used to save him, I call the Mudkip Gil Gaston.

Following this I head to Route 103 to meet Brendan who challenges me to a battle, after beating him we head to the lab and Birch gives me a pokedex and some pokeballs, I head out and start collecting my team, starting with Dude the Zigzaggon, then Beast the Poocheyna and Jane the Wurmple and during training I sadly lose Jane, Beast and eventually Dude whilst catching Diablo the Wingull. Heading through the woods I catch Jay the Shroomish and then route 116 gives me Iago the Taillow and the Rusturff Tunnel gives me Philip the Whismur. After some training I headed to Rustbro City to challenge the gym. So that Philip can catch up in levels to the team I lead with him against the trainers before taking on Roxanne. I beat her easily with Gil Gaston and Jay.

[DeusPro]

Hi, I?m just here to change one of the rules that seems pretty unbalanced with Pok?mon like Zigzagoon. Players have been getting several Rare Candies due to Pickup, so I am nullifying that as a way to get points. Thanks! Although no posted runs on here have experienced, I was thankful enough to catch this before it seriously wreaked havoc.

Edit: For confirmation, regional Rare Candies still count for points. Any Rare Candies earned any other way are not eligible for points.

 

[SirDolan]

Part Two of 'Will I actually complete a Nuzlocke run this time?'​

Oh boy, another update. Probably the last for this week I guess, who knows? I certainly don't.

Spoiler: Screenshots

And we're back to find and catch my first pok?mon of the challenge!

I find this lil furry beauty. Too bad Zigzagoons were nerfed after R/S.

Third pok?mon down, a docile pooch.

And we're currently going through the stage of catching a new squad as we go through a whole bunch of new routes.

Look who rolls into town, and I say town because if you're saying this place is a city I'ma tell you this is closer to a village. And I get to play a game of 'Where's Wally?' Ah the nostalgia.

Hey, Dad. Yeah, it's all good. But the journey could've been better, y'know. Seeing as I had to ride in the back of a truck with all our stuff. At least I win the game of finding Wally.

How and why do I get mixed up in helping people with their problems. If I wanted quests I'd play Skyrim.

Pfft, good luck, kiddo. Catching pok?mon is an art. It takes skill, it takes practice, it takes...
Oh. You, uh, you caught it. ...good job. Beginner's luck.

Yes, yes, you caught your first pok?mon. Now give my dad's Zigzagoon back.

You don't have to tell me twice. I can't wait to get out of here and catch my next pok?mon.

Yeah, and I'll come out on top like the champion I'm destined to be.

Obligatory Wingull capture. If you're not travelling around Hoenn with a Wingull or Pelipper, are you even in Hoenn?

Shroomish is a pretty cool Grass type to have. Also notice how every pok?mon I've caught so far has been female.

Yeah, me too man. Like damn, Grovyle is such a cool pok?mon to train and--

Whoa, dude, what the heck? Rude much? We were just having a conversation about how cool Grovyle is, mind your own damn business.

Yeah, das right. Don't mess with me while I'm talkin' about my fave pok?mon, you scrub.

How to run an evil organisation: Not like this.

Finally, a place that can actually be called a city.

Apparently I forgot to take a screenshot of naming the Taillow here. I name her 'Rosenschal'.

First death of the challenge. I got too careless here and didn't take note of how high levelled this Machop was compared to my team. RIP Freckles, you would have been a great Breloom.

Holy Arceus, I actually caught a male pok?mon for once.

Pennell, you lil beauty. For once training before taking on the gym paid off.

I forgot to take more screenshots of the battle because of HOW MUCH OF A SLAUGHTER IT WAS. Although, seeing Winston fall to the red there made my heart stop for a moment.

But it all paid off as I get my first badge and grab those two points for a perfect gym battle.

Nothing compares to this reward, though.

On to find a new buddy!(I caught a poochyena on route 103 but I forgot to nickname it so it doesn't exist. R.i.p point)

+1
And look at what we have here. How typical.
I see trainer up ahead so [insert training montage here]


-some time later-

Beautiful! Now let's own these poor trainers.
Dusssstox! >:D

They never saw it coming. Let us all remember the slaughtered zigzagoons on route 102 :'(

Oh great the all mighty Petalburg "City"
I wonder if my dad still runs the Gym here.

And sure enough. I guess being a Gym leader pays a lot.

Sure can do buddy ol' pal ol' friend!

Well I mean it's not that hard. Just gotta hit it a few times and chuck a pokeball in its face.

I.... I did it! My own Pokemon!
They grow up so quickly :')

I'm looking forward to it buddy ol' pal ol' friend!
I'm your father! Not your "buddy"
Ouch buddy that hurts my feelings.

+1
Route 104 delivers us a wingull! Well at least it knows Water Gun.
Gull Gull!
Whatever you say bird.

+1
Well at least it's not a bug... But since I have Barney I'm probably not gonna use it. In the PC you go!

Hey there kid! Would you like to join Team Ro- I mean Magma?
What if I say n-
A BATTLE IT IS!
Sure...

Arghh! How did you defeat my low level Poochyena!? I must report this to HQ!
As long as you don't bother me then it's all good.

Yeah yeah go cry about it in your HQ already.

Oh thank you so much for saving me brave hero!

Uh thanks but where did you come from?
Gotta go!

Route 104 continues past the forest so nothing interesting there. Onwards to the city!

Part Three of 'Will I actually complete a Nuzlocke run this time?'​

Three updates in three days with logs and screenshots? This is a new record for me. I'm just trying to keep the ball rolling while I still have motivation for this run.

Spoiler: Screenshots

Ayy, I'm back on my way fresh from a Pok?mon Centre and a shiny new gym badge in mah pocket. And I get to meet this cool guy from the Devon Corp again! Hey my man, how's it going?

Oh, right. I forgot everyone in this country relies on children to sort out their problems for them. Fine, but I'd better get a reward at the end of this quest.

Yo, old man, you better wait your turn. Unless this is like PMD where I can do multiple jobs in the same dungeon then sign me up.

May as well. It worked out well for me last time and you're about as intimidating as a Feebas.

Oh my, who could have foreseen this outcome? A true plot twist if I had ever seen one.

Because you keep getting your butt handed to you by a child? :fufu:

Yep. That's me. The protector of pok?mon, the future champion, the ruler of peace. Can you give me a boat ride at some point? That'd be a great help, probably.

Yeah, everything always gets sorted when I'm around. You can always count on me even when I don't want you to-- whoa, um, buddy, I have a lot to do. I mean, do I even have a choice? Nope. Of course not.

You're so grateful that you pretty much kidnapped me and took me to the HQ of the company you work for, only to ask me to deliver the package you couldn't look after. Strange gratitude.

And reading this with little to no context doesn't help your case either.

You don't even care. You're just gonna introduce me to your boss. Fair enough. Hi there, I'm the child that's had to save your fully grown adult employee's butt twice. You should totally fire his guy already.

Yes, because apparently nobody can sort their own mess out. You, being the CEO of a big corporation, I assume can handle your own stuff just fi--

...of course.

Swiggity swooty ( ?? ?? ??)

Ha, I wish. If only you knew of what I have to go through.

Yep. Originally, I just wanted to go on a casual cruise, but now I have more quests to run.

Boat journeys are fun.

Yes, absolutely.

I'll absolutely give this Steven fellow his letter at some point.

Whoops, I forgot to screenshot the pok? ball part.

Obligatory Zubat capture in a cave.

WHY IS EVERYTHING SO DARK.

Hello there, take your letter and let me leave this rocky hell before I end up smashing my face against another wall like I did fifty times while trying to find you.

Please. Let's just get this over with.

Woo, more boat rides. Getting taunted by an item I can't reach for a while.

I hope so.

Gotta love this beach and city, though. Easily one of my favourite places in this region.

How to be awful at being an evil organisation: this. Also, you scrubs are in the way of my delivery, get outta here.

What to avoid like the plague: this.

How to mess up capturing a pok?mon: this.

I do some pre-gym grinding, and these two beauts evolve during their training.

Time to challenge the second gym leader and hope I trained enough. I tend to make the mistake of not training enough before taking on gym leaders in the earlier games.

OH HO HO, I definitely trained enough! Vestal makes quick work of his Machop while Rosenschal takes out his Makuhita in one hit. ONE HIT K.O.

An appropriate ending to this part.
